Leaders of the PTI and Sunni Ittehad are holding a press conference in Islamabad.

“After elections, all the PTI-backed candidates elected from the country […] our claim is that the PTI has won 180 National Assembly seats,” PTI leader Barrister Gohar Khan said.

He said all the independent candidates contested the polls on the tickets of the PTI and were supported by the party. “Thankfully, they have won in a big number in all provinces […] of these only three have been notified yet,” he highlighted.

Barrister Gohar said that as per the law, independents were supposed to join a political party within three days.
